The post Solana is now rivaling Ethereum on almost all key metrics appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
A recent Syncracy thesis on Solana revealed that the blockchain had surpassed Ethereum across several metrics in the past few months. The thesis-driven hedge fund calculated Solana’s performance as a percentage of Ethereum’s. The report indicated that Solana showed signs of dominance in the crypto market and suggested that the blockchain was taking Ethereum’s market share. Syncracy data outlined that Solana’s Real Economic value, combining the chain’s transaction fees and MEV tips, was 111% against Ethereum’s.
